    Beignets
    LeeAnn R.

    Fresh Beignets!!! Shop opens at 7 with takeaway breakfast items. Delightful with a cup of coffee by the sea.

    a variety of food items

    The only Asian food place in Avalon and it's just Chinese takeout food. It's greasy and salty but the varieties are not bad. It's weird that they don't always have hot and sour soup. It's a must have soup for any Asian eateries but not here! Kung pao & orange chicken are safe choices in my opinion. Not the best Chinese takeout but it will have to do in Avalon!

    Fried rice with kung pao chicken and shrimp.

    We hear of Chinese food & donuts but how about Chinese food & beignets! Mr.T's Chinese Kitchen offers Chinese food Panda express style with all the entrees laid out. You can get fried rice or chow mein on the side with either 1 or 2 entree combo plate. Mr. T's also sells breakfast sandwiches, beignets, juices and ice cream. I arrived on Catalina Island hoping for some breakfast but the pancake houses were packed with a line out the door. I went down a small block and found Mr.T's with no line. I went in to get a two entree plate of spicy shrimp and kung pao chicken. While on a bumpy golf cart ride, I was munching on Mr.T's while enjoying the beautiful island scenery! Wow the shrimp was SPICY hot burned my throat and made me cough. Kung Pao was a little spice and bearable. I was thinking how funny it was that the girl who prepped my food asked if I wanted hot sauce. Im glad I said NO. Taste was pretty bland but a whole lotta spice. I would love to see more Asian food on Catalina. OK quick bite for lunch.

    Fried Rice

    Great place to get quick , comfort food. I got a bowl with chow mein and orange chicken. Nice.

    Beignets

    Not so sure about their food as we didn't have any as we mainly came here for their beignets. Saw from a fellow foodie how good their beignets were and had to check them out since we were there for the day as it was one of the stops on our cruise. For a little over $6, you get 3 beignets. They are a lot smaller and cost more than ones I've had from New Orleans or at the Disney but they're pretty tasty and made fresh once ordered. A nice little place to get a taste of the sweet treat of beignets. It's a small mom-and-pop kinda shop and doesn't have seating on the inside but there are a few tables out front to have lunch or a treat.

    This place has incredible baked goods, specifically the breakfast croissant sandwich and beignets!

    Beignets (3 for $5)
    Monica C.

    I saw a Yelp review that this place served really good Beignets and I was craving something sweet. This little Chinese food place is tucked away next to Original Jack's Pancakes. The beignets seemed to be fresh and made to order. I waited about 5 minutes and they were warm with a perfect amount of sugar topping. It comes in a box of 3 for $5 but I couldn't wait so the picture only shows 2. I loved it! I would definitely come back here and make sure I check in next time!

Since that issue was more platform-related than food-related, I did not factor it into my rating. The best items were definitely the beans and the Kurobuta pork soup xiao long bao. The crab xiao long bao also tasted good, but several dumplings in the box had broken open during delivery, so all the soup leaked out (see photo). The beef rolls were decent, though the sauce leaned a little too sweet for my taste. The scallion pancakes were flavorful but slightly greasy. Overall, for the price and taste, I would still give it a solid 4/5.

Beef was unfortunately inedible, shrimp was average and chicken was okay but tasted like warmed up chicken so not the best. Veggies were okay though the zucchini tasted a bit sour. Rice side was okay and egg roll was okay. Fried wonton was tasty. Soup was okay. Overall, I have had much better quality lunch specials at Chinese restaurants. Food was a bit below average in taste and quality. The lunch special price was cheaper than average for California. There were Chinese customers dining and I noticed they were not getting the lunch special. I was only given the lunch special menu so I guess they assume that if you are not Chinese you are going to order the lunch special?

We ordered and were quickly presented with: Spicy Pepper Beef: A medium spice level with a savory dark soy sauce, bathing ultra tender beef slices, married with thin sliced jalapeño and diced red and green bell peppers. Unbelievably delicious. Walnut Honey Shrimp: Mega large butterflied prawns quickly fried with walnuts and sweet glaze, crispy and crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Tangerine Chicken: Large delicate and tender chicken breast pieces deep fried in a fluffy batter and glazed with a perfectly sweet and tart tangerine sauce. Our meal came with individual bowls of perfectly cooked jasmine rice. Enough food to feed 3 hungry adults and still have leftovers. $63 Why 5 stars? Without a doubt, the best, cleanest tasting Chinese dishes I have ever experienced. More to come from this place I'm sure. If you are anywhere near Temecula, get off the freeway and reward yourself.
